Benbow Historic Inn - Garberville

This is such a wonderful place. It's inexpensive. You can bring your dog. The staff is fantastic and so sweet. The whole building is beautiful as are the grounds. I told my whole family about it and we plan on staying there next year. If love to seewhat it looks like in the Fall.

A unique inn in a lovely setting. The hotel appears to have been updated recently, and everything was in great condition. We had dinner al fresco. The wait staff was friendly and attentive. Moreover, the food was surprisingly delicious and expertlyprepared. The hotel is lucky to have such a talented chef on board. The inn is only minutes from the Avenue of the Giants,making this a no-brainer place to stay if you are visiting the redwoods.

Very nice place filled with history. Built in the 1920's, the halls are filled with photos and art from over the years. Even a photo of Clark Gable flying in to stay. The grounds are truly remarkable and the staff is even better. Room very comfortableand why anyone would stay anywhere else while traveling thru here makes no sense to me. The price is not that much more than a1 star hotel along the Famous Route 101 Coastal Scenic Highway. Everything on this Scenic Route is expensive. So why not stayhere in luxury for a little more and enjoy the finer things in life?

Rode past this place for years growing up decades ago, but never got to see the inside. Fortune was with me on a trip through the area. Stayed over night. Very cool place! Beautiful inside and out. Everything I had hoped and expected. Felt welcome by allstaff members. Excellent food and drinks.

We just returned from a two night stay at the Inn and can't wait to go back. What a charming place with an idyllic setting, fascinating history and friendly staff. Our view of the river and grounds from room 114 were beautiful, peaceful and refreshing and the room was clean and comfortable. We enjoyed all of our delicious meals in the Dining Room...where we felt like we were eating in a beautiful tree house...the ambience and view were so lovely. We also enjoyed nightly drinks in front of the fire in the lobby...where there were plenty of puzzles, chess sets, books and papers for us to enjoy. The Benbow Inn is a magical place, one where we were transported back to a simpler time and made to feel very special. We will definitely be visiting again soon.
